Shoutouts 🎉

Omnivore takes advantage of some great open source software:

  • TypeScript - Most of our backend and frontend are written in TypeScript.
  • Next.js - Our frontend is a Next.JS app and is hosted on Vercel.
  • SWR - We do all our data fetching on the web using SWR.
  • Stitches - We use Stitches on the frontend to style our components.
  • Mozilla Readability - We use Mozilla's Readability library to make pages easier to read.
  • Swift GraphQL - We generate our GraphQL queries on iOS using Swift GraphQL.
  • Apollo GraphQL - We generate our GraphQL queries on Android using Apollo GraphQL.
  • Radix - We use Radix UI's components on our frontend.
  • PDF.js - PDF.js is used to have open source pdf functionality.
  • And many more awesome libraries, just checkout our package files to see what we are using.

Importing Libraries

Check out our docs for information on importing your data from other apps.

How to setup local development 💻

The easiest way to get started with local development is to use docker compose up. This will start a postgres container, our web frontend, an API server, and our content fetching microservice.

Requirements for development

Omnivore is written in TypeScript and JavaScript.

Running the web and API services

1. Start docker compose

git clone https://github.com/omnivore-app/omnivore
cd omnivore
docker compose up

This will start postgres, initialize the database, and start the web and api services.

2. Open the browser

Open http://localhost:3000 and confirm Omnivore is running

3. Login with the test account

During database setup docker compose creates an account demo@omnivore.app, password: demo_password.

Go to http://localhost:3000/ in your browser and choose Continue with Email to login.

Frontend Development

If you want to work on just the frontend of Omnivore you can run the backend services with docker compose and the frontend locally:

docker compose up api content-fetch
cd packages/web
cp .env.template .env.local
yarn dev

You will need to configure some values in the new .env.local file. These are the values for running the web service directly on your host machine and running api and content-fetch within docker:

NEXT_PUBLIC_BASE_URL=http://localhost:3000
NEXT_PUBLIC_HIGHLIGHTS_BASE_URL=http://localhost:3000
NEXT_PUBLIC_LOCAL_BASE_URL=http://localhost:3000
NEXT_PUBLIC_SERVER_BASE_URL=http://localhost:4000
NEXT_PUBLIC_LOCAL_SERVER_BASE_URL=http://localhost:4000

Running the puppeteer-parse service outside of Docker

To save pages you need to run the puppeteer-parse service.

1. Install and configure Chromium

brew install chromium --no-quarantine
export PUPPETEER_SKIP_CHROMIUM_DOWNLOAD=true
export CHROMIUM_PATH=`which chromium`

2. Navigate to the service directory, setup your env file, and install dependencies

cd packages/puppeteer-parse
cp .env.example .env
yarn

3. Start the service

yarn start

This will start the puppeteer-parse service on port 9090.

In your browser go to http://localhost:3000/home, click the Add Link button, and enter a URL such as https://blog.omnivore.app/p/getting-started-with-omnivore.

You should see a Chromium window open and navigate to your link. When the service is done fetching your content you will see it in your library.
